For decades, scientists assumed that neural stem cells (NSCs) only occur in the brain and spinal cord. A new international ...

The biological research of UC Santa Cruz's Needhi Bhalla to determine the molecular motions at the heart of heredity has yielded a new discovery: The proper transfer of genetic materials depends on ...

Ghosh is at the helm of the HUMANOID™ Center for Excellence at the University of California San Diego, which is pioneering ...

Scientists achieved “a milestone” by charting the activity and structure of 200,000 cells in a mouse brain and their 523 ...

The DNA of human cells consists of a sequence of about 3.1 billion building blocks. Cells go to great lengths to maintain the ...

Scientists have attempted to map the human cell since the first microscope was invented more than 400 years ago. But many components of the cell still remain uncharted.

As warehouses go, nuclei are more like libraries than bank vaults. Too many cellular components need access to the genome to lock it down like Fort Knox. Instead, large groupings of more than 1,000 ...

The nuclei in our cells are miniature warehouses safeguarding the genetic blueprint for the body's biologic machinery. As warehouses go, nuclei are more like libraries than bank vaults. Too many ...

Scientists have unveiled a revolutionary method for mass-producing high-quality human mitochondria, potentially transforming ...

Human extracellular matrices can be edited in their composition using the CRISPR/Cas9 system, leading to materials exhibiting tailored regenerative capacities.

Here’s how it works. Finding one of the best cheap cell phone plans no longer means sacrificing data just to keep costs down. I've found ways to keep your bill under $40 each month while still ...
